Prediction: Mueller investigation will turn out the same as everything else

Both sides will see what they want to see

Russia tried to influence the 2016 election, or just sow chaos?

They ran ads favoring Trump

They ALSO ran ads favoring Hillary

Russia hacked one side (the DNC)…and not the other?

Russia wouldn’t TRY to hack both sides?

Kelli Wilson, a Black woman in Jacksonville, Fla,, claims that white cops beat and assaulted her after they saw her filming her husband’s arrest at a local convenience store. Wilson’s legal team says video of the incident supports her case, but authorities countered her allegations by saying she was interfering with the investigation.

Local television outlet NewsJax4 covered Wilson and her story, who was flanked by her lawyers during the station’s broadcast coverage. Wilson’s attorneys are confident that their client was not in the wrong but without audio in the clip, there could be further snags to come in the case.

In Kelli Wilson’s mind, all she did was record her husband’s arrest with her phone.

Police with the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office report the woman interfered with their investigation, and was only arrested after being warned more than once.

“I was beaten, and then falsely arrested, my phone was stolen, my car was taken. It was a traumatic experience. It was definitely an experience you never think you would be going through,” said Wilson.

The incident happened July 15, 2015, outside a Westside convenience store. Wilson found out her husband had been stopped by police, so she got a ride to the scene and tried to pickup their vehicle. She says she turned on her video recorder on her phone as she talked with police.

Wilson says she identified herself to police and asked if she could recover the vehicle. She says she acted politely until the confrontation that can be seen on the convenience store surveillance video. Wilson says an officer demanded her phone, so she asked “why?”

“He asked for it, he demanded it again, and I gave him the same, ‘Why do you want my phone? What do you need my phone for?’ He told me he would punch me in my face,” said Wilson. “I eventually got punched and beaten and the sergeant that was on the scene joined in the beating.”

Wilson’s attorneys maintain that the three police officers in question filed a false report against their client and that the video will sway a jury in their favor. A crime and safety analyst for NewsJax4 disagreed with the attorneys, but only because it couldn’t be determined truly what happened without audio.

New Jersey police have arrested a suspect in the shooting that left two concertgoers wounded at a J. Cole show in Holmdel, NJ, CBS reports. Quran Powell is suspected to have fired off gun shots during the concert at the PNC Bank Arts Center Aug. 3rd while in the parking lot, leaving two men in critical condition.

After two days of searching and offering a $ 5,000 reward for any tips, police began their search for Powell. After obtaining a warrant to search his home, authorities were led to an East Orange, NJ apartment complex where Powell was found.

Powell has been charged with two counts of attempted homicide, certain persons not to possess a firearm and possession of a weapon for unlawful purposes. He is currently being held on $ 750,000 bail at Monmouth County Jail.

The San Francisco 49ers have apparently had enough of Aldon Smith and his antics and don’t care how many sacks he gets a season. The organization just handed him his walking papers following his latest arrest.

Aldon Smith received second chance after second chance with the San Francisco 49ers, who parted ways with their troubled linebacker Friday following his fifth run-in with the law.
Only a few days earlier, general manager Trent Baalke expressed his desire to keep Smith beyond this season, which would have been a contract year. Instead Friday, Baalke and coach Jim Tomsula met with Smith at team headquarters after he left jail to inform him he was no longer part of the team.

“It’s a sad day,” Tomsula said during an emotional news conference. “This is a day that doesn’t have anything to do about football.”

Smith was arrested Thursday night — on a day off from training camp for players — the fifth legal run-in since the team drafted him in 2011. Tomsula spoke to a couple of players but planned a team meeting Friday afternoon.

“Guys care about him, we care about that guy, deeply,” he said.

Smith had said when camp began he was healthy and in great shape, “ready to go.”

Santa Clara police arrested Smith, and accused him of drunken driving, hit and run and vandalism.

Police said Friday that at 8:46 p.m., Smith collided with a parked vehicle while parking his car, then caused further damage to the parked vehicle with his car door.

Authorities said Smith then left the scene without reporting the collision or leaving any identifying information. He later returned to the parking area where he was contacted by officers. Smith displayed “objective symptoms of being under the influence of an alcoholic beverage. Officers administered a field sobriety test to Smith” and was arrested.

“Although he won’t be playing football for the San Francisco 49ers, he will be supported and helped, and he will not have to walk this path alone,” Tomsula said. “That comes from our ownership down. He will not have to walk this path alone. We’re not worried about football. It has nothing to do with football.”

Aldon Smith wouldn’t have spent a night in jail or gotten kicked off the 49ers, if he’d simply been able to park his car. Santa Clara PD say the now ex-Niner smashed into a parked car on Thursday evening … while attempting…

The Los Angeles Times is reporting Diddy will not be charged with a felony from his arrest at UCLA. A source told the publication prosecutors decided not to pursue felony charges because Diddy waved the kettleball used during the incident at several people and no one was seriously injured.

The case was sent from the L.A. County district attorney’s office to the L.A. city attorney. That prosecutor will decide whether to charge Diddy with a misdemeanor. The decision is expected to be announced next week.

“We are thankful that the district attorney rejected felony charges in this matter,” said Diddy’s attorney Mark Geragos. “This case never should have been part of the criminal justice system to begin with.”

Diddy was taken into custody last week after the Hip Hop mogul was accused of assaulting his son’s assistant football coach at UCLA. Sal Alosi apparently dismissed Justin Combs from the team for the summer. Diddy confronted Alosi, and the situation became physical. Video cameras are said to have captured Diddy swinging the kettleball in the Bruin’s weight room.

When Robert Durst was arrested just one day before the finale of The Jinx, television history was made.

“What the hell did I do?” Durst said off camera. “Killed them all, of course.”

(AllHipHop News) The arrest of Bobby Shmurda has been one of the biggest rap related news stories of the week. The “Hot N***a” performer being charged with gun possession and conspiracy in New York has garnered a lot of opinions from people associated with the Hip Hop community.

Shmurda’s label representative Sha Money of Epic Records issued a statement, Maybach Music Group rapper Meek Mill chastised the public for making fun of the Brooklyn native, and now James “Jimmy Henchman” Rosemond is offering his thoughts on the matter. The incarcerated former artist manager reached out exclusively to AllHipHop.com to address the 20-year-old entertainer’s latest run-in with the law.

“With everything happening with Bobby Shmurda there’s a need for a rap expert on deck, because the culture is under attack,” Rosemond tells AllHipHop.com. “If they can use 50’s lyrics against me as an executive to prove murder then we all in trouble.”

Earlier this month, Rosemond was convicted of hiring a gunman in the murder plot that left G-Unit associate Lowell “Lodi Mack” Fletcher dead in 2009. The killing was allegedly connected to the street war between 50 Cent’s G-Unit and Rosemond’s crew.

According to reports, Shmurda previously stated he felt New York City police were targeting him. Earlier this year, he was arrested for another gun possession charge, and later arrested again for smoking weed in public. In October, Shmurda even taunted the NYPD in an Instagram post. He wrote, “So da bum ass cops locked me up yesterday Fa some bulls**t made me miss.”
